Double Reel The Adamsons

The Adamsons conclude Issue 49 of the monthly magazine podcast for the discerning film nerd with the Remakes Tribunal, where we put bad filmmaking on trial. We're joined once again by noted sci fi author and fellow film nerd Alan Bayles.
 
The remake under our spotlight is 2003's SWAT, where we ask if this Colin Farrell and Sam Jackson-led reboot of an old TV show deserves to exist or should we wipe it from film history. Then we ask if the fatally flawed and quite racist 1985 police thriller Year of the Dragon should be remade to get it right this time.
 
The first two parts of Issue 49 are already out - Double Reel Monthly and Classics & Hidden Gems.

Issue 49 of the monthly magazine podcast continues with our Classics and Hidden Gems episode, where we're joined by special guest co host Alan Bayles, fellow film nerd and sci fi author.
 
The Classic one of us is finally getting round to seeing is the iconic 70s police drama Serpico, and the Hidden Gem we want you to consider watching is 1997's Cop Land.
 
The first part of the issue Double Reel Monthly is already out, and next week we finish up issue 49 with the Remakes Tribunal.

The Adamsons are back with Issue 49 of the monthly magazine podcast for the discerning film nerd. The first instalment is Double Reel Monthly. We cover news stories and new releases that caught our eye, review some new films we've seen since our last issue, and look at the films from our year long projects The Year of the Nolan - Tenet - and Women Directors - Ida Lupino's The Hitch-Hiker.
Next week will be our second part, Classics and Hidden Gems.

The Adamsons bring down the curtain on Issue 48 of Double Reel, the monthly magazine podcast for the discerning film nerd. The final part is the Big Conversation where this month we discuss our favourite films of the decade 2000 to 2009. 
Similar to our chat in Issue 46 we each nominate our favourite film from each year of the decade, and discuss which of them should be named best film of that year. Unlike last time we're allowing Best Picture Oscar winners from last year. 
Our previous instalments from Issue 48 are out now - Double Reel Monthly with news, new releases, reviews of new films and the latest in our annual movie projects; and the Features in which we discuss a Classic, a Hidden Gem, our final One That Got Away, a Remake Hatewatch and a remake we'd like to see of a film that didn't work the first time.
Our next Issue is in development and will start to land in your podcast app from May 25th.

Issue 48 of the monthly magazine podcast for the discerning film nerd continues with the Features. The Classic we've just got round to seeing is Touch of Evil, and the Hidden Gem we think you should check out is Ghost Dog: the Way of the Samurai. Our final ever One That Got Away discusses how Martin Scorsese nearly made House of Gucci 20 years before Ridley Scott did it, and our Remake Hatewatch looks at Orca, 1977's blatant rip off of Jaws. Finally we look at the flawed but fascinating Tron Legacy and ask whether that should be remade better this time.
 
Part 1 of this month's issue Double Reel Monthly is already out, and next week we'll bring you the Big Conversation.

Another packed issue of the monthly magazine podcast for the discerning film nerd kicks off with April's Double Reel Monthly, covering news, new releases, reviews of new films and how we're getting in with our annual film projects. New films include Immaculate, Ricky Stanicki, Road House, a catch up on the Beekeeper and two films featuring friend of the pod Jamie B Chambers: Morris Men and The Shamrock Spitfire.
 
Next week we'll bring you the next part of the issue, the Features.
